@yags21 Congrats. I assuming you are choosing BC over Villanova?

Did everyone send physical copies of their parents’ tax returns, W-2 forms, etc.? I thought IDOC from CSS would take care of it, but I just read that BC doesn’t use IDOC…

Yes, you have to mail in Returns. I called and confirmed that. Address is posted on site

I just received my admissions letter. If I qualified for the Presidential Scholarship should I have received notice by now? Has anyone gotten any word about that ?

Hi there. My daughter did not get the presidential letter either and we are assuming this means she is not invited to interview. I read on their website that they mail the notifications between the 18th and 20th, so I think we would have received them by now. Her admissions acceptance mentions honors, but not the Gabelli.

Does anyone know what this years early action acceptance rate was? Thanks!

@macaronnie and @collegemomjam - Gabelli Scholarship weekend invitations are in the acceptance packets. They are not a separate mailing.

@cc1721 - 32 percent

I understand you are disappointed for your son but this is a tough process for everyone so let’s support each other instead of putting people down. This is a crazy process with no rhyme or reason. Your son will end up at a great school!!

For the financial aid notification on the Agora Portal, my understanding is that it will come in late January, but will we receive an email when it’s up, or should we just check every few days?

If the financial aid part of the agora portal is showing “required documents”, does this mean that I need to send in those documents that are listed there. Are they being requested? thanks!

@tofu123 I am wondering that too. The acceptance letter did say late January, but I don’t know how we are getting them. i don’t want to check my account everyday if we will be notified when the packages are ready. Any current students know how they dispersed aid packages?
